Attended Cal Jam2 this time without tripping. It was a beautiful sunny day with even more people than the first,350,000. Plastic bottles were passed out and when the folks in front wouldn’t sit and the ones in back wouldn’t stand thousands of white water bottles went flying around like moths. If there was still water in them gallon jugs it wasn’t fun getting hit.

250,000 were there. Got there early morning and waited to get a spot near the soundboard. Split window pane with my brother,he was mellow but I freaked out during Black Oak Arkansas when they dropped sun visors from a helicopter. I called my mother by butting in line for the pay phone. Later when I saw her driving across the speedway in the family station
I was 22 at the time. My Bro and Buds got there early in the morning, I like to be near the sound board. I split a window pane and freaked out when Black Oak dropped sun visors from a helicopter. Sabbath looked like animals scrambling about. I butted in line at the pay phone and called my mother. By the time I saw her driving across the track I had come down. After becoming Jesus and drinking tequila thinking it was water I returned to the show with 250,000 other rockers. That was 50 years ago!

I had almost forgotten this show until the cd came out and I saw the picture of the audience splashing in the pool. I was a big Vanilla Fudge fan. I have been to so many shows that I didn’t remember this one is hard to believe. I was 17 and now I’m 73 so there you go.

The sound was pretty garbled but crowd yelling and mostly girl’s screaming. I remember a girl crying out,”Sky, Sky!” for the singer of the Seeds. The Supremes were excellent!
